The mystery wine was indeed a Tempranillo. It's called Vizana fr Extremadura Spain. Notes ...
Vizana Tempranillo 2007: Ribera del Guadiano, Spain (in Extemadura). Blockbuster affordable tempranillo crianza.
A blockbuster red. Inky dark. Huge blackberry, minerality, cloves and spices, liqueur cherries, liquorice, dark cocoa and hint of vanilla with dusty undertones. Firm tannins, full body, long finish. A delightfully big red wine.

Viewpointe 2010 Pinot Grigio. Just out. More Alsace than ever, with toasty fruity tones of apricot, fresh ripe honeydew melon, smoky pear and a hint of apple on a crisp finish.

Ca' De Riva Valpolicella Ripasso 2007. Comes across far more more mature & costly than it really is;
a dark beauty that comes on strong with a robust bouquet & flavours of black cherry, spices, vanilla, dark chocolate & dried fruit. Additional nuances of smoke, leather & red fruit. Long lingering finish. I enjoyed it immensely after organic burgers, salad and asparagus. Great with the food, stellar as a sipper. A big affordable wine from Veneto. In your favourite LCBO.
